nice game, solid gameplay! If you take feedback : more camera movements and shake could improve the juice, also the controls were a bit hard to get at first on a trackpad, but its my bad for not having a mouse so its good

This is a really fun, well-made game! I'm impressed with the simplicity and  feel of the controls, it made it easy to learn how to play.

It made me laugh, because I kept crashing into Uranus haha :D

I like the controls, it felt fun to move around. I did crash into venus 5 times before i got the hang of it..

I see you,  a fellow Orbital shooter game!

Simple and sweet, could use a bit more juice but great for a game jam. I also like how only controls with only a mouse

Simple, but pleasant game

The gameplay is tight but the spaceship is a bit hard to notice. Maybe add some thrust so it is easier to see

I like the simplicity of mouse-only movement, although the game is quite small and does not have a lot of content. Artwork and sounds really do well with each other.
